As in previous years, the SPOT conference will discuss a range of issues generated by the experiences and struggles of workers and campaigners in Turkey. It will address the most recent attack on trade unions, women’s rights, LGBT+ people and climate activists.
It will seek to put this in a wider context of the drive to win greater equality, democratic freedom and justice globally.
SPOT is an umbrella group made of progressive organisations, campaign groups and trade unions in Britain. It aims to support those struggling for democracy and fundamental freedoms in Turkey. You can visit its website at spotturkey.co.uk
There will be a broad range of speakers from Britain, Turkey and internationally at the conference (more TBC).
